With Christmas behind us, it’s time to look forward to the new year, 2018. In the next year, I hope to share more recipes healthy, sweet, savory, and delicious recipes, like these Sweet Potato Rosemary Thin Breadsticks. Savory never tasted so good in one bite. I created this recipe using Herbs De Provence, another deliciously flavored sea salt from San

While everyone else is baking Christmas sweets, I thought I’d share this recipe for Savory Mustard Dill Twists & Biscuits with y’all today. You can blame it on the turkey leftovers from Thanksgiving that has my taste buds craving savory foods. Unlike most people, I love my turkey with your everyday yellow mustard instead of gravy. Mustard has that mild spicy

Thank goodness I came back before pumpkin spice said good-bye! I’ve been dreaming about these Pumpkin Spice Granola Bars since September. Yes, dreaming, night and day. It’s like they’ve been haunting me. In a good way. Haunting my thoughts and making my mouth water. Some might say I’m obsessed, but I like to think of it as passionate thoughts. I’m a foodie, I have

You are going to love these Soft Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies! I’m not just saying this either because I’m a foodie. I first tried Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies a few years ago and didn’t much care for them. I was like, “meh.” I much prefer Oatmeal Raisin Cookies over these! I can live without these cookies in my life. After

Trying to stay cool during this heatwave almost makes you forget that we are nearing the end of summer. Yes, school is just around the corner! This can be a happy moment for some of you! And maybe a not-so-happy moment for those who are already dreading the back-to-school shopping coming up in your near future. But let’s just not

I have finally made a nut-free, bake-free Granola bar! I got the idea for these after making my Homemade Cough Drops earlier this year. I noticed as I prepared the honey for my cough drops, it became thickened, almost like a caramel. Since then, I’ve had the idea of making granola bars using that same preparation method for the honey.

I love summertime with the warmth of the sunshine and longer days. On the other hand, I could do without the bugs, especially the mosquitoes and flies, and the sweltering heat. I’ve lived on both the west coast and the east coast and I have to say, humidity makes it hotter than it really is! I grew up in California

I don’t usually talk about movies here because it’s off subject for a food blog, but I just finished watching Moana on Netflix and I loved it! Moana is one of the best Disney movies I’ve seen in a long time! I love the characters Moana and Maui. Dwayne Johnson is the personification of Maui! The facial expressions and the

I recently discovered Tea Eggs around Easter when I was trying to find natural alternatives to dying eggs. I immediately fell in love with them! Tea eggs are a traditional snack in China. You might also hear them referred to as Marbled Tea Eggs, Chinese Tea Eggs, or Tea Leaf Eggs. Hard-boiled eggs steeped in black tea with spices like star

I have a recipe for you today that will satisfy those salty cravings while also being good for you, Turmeric Lime Roasted Chickpeas. So put away that bag of potato chips. Ha, caught ya, didn’t I? Although I have a sweet tooth, okay, LOTS of sweet teeth! I sometimes crave salty foods too and these Turmeric Lime Roasted Chickpeas will
